Hello all.
First post here.
I'm planning to overhaul my heating!
I have an oil fired combi boiler which currently just has a programmer on it. If it is on, then it just cuts in and out based on the water stat - room for improvement here. All the radiators in the house have Danfoss TRVs fitted which do work well, but obviously they are not timed.
Part one of the solution just showed up today - Neo Stats from Heatmiser! I got the '2' kit which includes a hot water programmer, the hub and the heating 'stat/programmer. I also got three additional Neo Stats.
For my bathroom, I have installed electric underfloor heating which will be controlled by one of the 'stats with remote air and floor probes. The stat itself can switch 3A which is fine for my small bathroom.
I will put the main heating programmer in the hall, and the radiator there will have the TRV fully open.
The other two Neo Stats will go in the living room and bedroom, to provide more control there. My plan was to replace the TRV heads with Emmeti actuators like this:
I envisage using the 4 wire variant, the micro switch would be tied back to the boiler so can switch it on and off when heating is demanded. I ordered one of the Emmetis to play with and it seems that it doesn't fit on the valve that sits under the Danfoss head. Does anyone know a right angled TRV valve which will take this? The Emmeti apparently has a M30 x 1.5 thread.
All help gratefully received, and I will of course share my experience with the Neo!
Jambo.
